Case Study – A Simple Message, Easy Call to Action, Complicated Outcomes

Utility Safety Partners has a simple message. Like all One-Call services it advocates for people and professional contractors to contact them before they dig a hole. One contact and locate markings result a short time later by any company with buried facilities int eh area, and you can dig that hole for your deck, or fence post, or whatever work needs to be done.

That’s a message that benefits everyone right? It’s a simple action contacting just one entity for all this, there’s no particular delay to the project… you would think compliance would be 100%?

Of course it isn’t.

That’s human nature. And it’s the communications challenge for all One-Call services around the World taking this easy message, and this easy call to action, and making it human habit.
